re: traveling bikes-you can try my bikefriday New World Tourist. When you travel with one of them you carry your clothes, etc in a soft bag and the bike packed in its own Samsonite hard suit case with the wheels that convert the suitcase to a trailer. When you get where you're going you assemble the bike, put the wheels and trailer hitch on the suitcase, hook it to the built-in hitch on the bike, put your soft bag of clothes into the case/trailer and ride off. The trailer/suitcase rides wide side down so you hardly know it's there unless you cut a corner too tight.
Lots of good info on bikefriday site.
